Every time I boot up ubuntu or mint, after choosing an OS from grub but before logging in, screen brightness is set to 0. Why is that?
I always end up manually turning on the brightness in order to see the logo and then login screen. It does not happen in other distros like debian.
I encoutner...
@Seth You voted to close this question: askubuntu.com/questions/382686/major-graphics-problem because it's a "My computer boots to a black screen..." duplicate, but it's not a dupe of that. The OP has got an underlying visual artifacts problem.
@Seth at least 384MB RAM. I have edited the tag wiki for the visual-artifacts tag on Superuser. Yesterday in fact... Do you think it would be a good idea to also create a visual-artifacts tag for AU?
I cannot seem to download files from the internet on my laptop with mint/ubuntu, due to strange bandwidth fluctuations.
I am able to browse web with firefox with no problems, apt-get update and dist-upgrade work normally, both my firefox and deluge and transmission have standard settings, I have...
@DarkHorse Once again, it could be RAM related. You can add more RAM to the Firefox browser cache, but ONLY IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH RAM, otherwise it may cause system performance and stability issues.
@AvinashRaj The commands look good to me, but the resulting sources.list file would be easier to read if you changed the two commands by adding a space character to them like this: sudo sed -i 's/^deb\-src/\# deb\-src/' /etc/apt/sources.list and sudo sed -i 's/^\# deb\-src/deb\-src/' /etc/apt/sources.list. All I did was to replace the two instances of #deb with # deb.
@AvinashRaj I recommend that you read DaithiF's answer on this thread regarding the usage of the -i flag in sed to make the changes in-place to the file that you're editing.
@AvinashRaj I ran Sushantp606's commands and they looked OK to me. After you've looked at DaithiF's answer and the other links on that page, you might also take a look at my answer to a question about sed on Superuser.
Regarding DaithiF's other commands, I wouldn't worry about it. I just liked his remark about the usage of the -i flag in sed,
@karel i am not asking about the placing -i flag before or after,He answered to replace s/^deb\-src/\#deb\-src/ with the ppa you want to comment.Is that right?
@AvinashRaj It looks OK to me. If you're nervous about possible wild 3rd-party software sources lines that might already be in sources.list you can edit the sources.list file manually in nano.
@hbdgaf Ubuntu 14.04 is still under development,so package search won't work as the repo isn't hosted yet.
@hbdgaf I was mistaken. The repo is hosted for 14.04 Trusty Tahr. And gtk appears to be 3.8. But, it's almost 1 year old. The current stable version is 3.12,they should give atleast 3.10. Stability is important for an LTS, but it doesn't mean giving age old packages.
I am working on Bifrost router, LINUX distribution. I don't know how to enable interfaces in it. if someone knows about its commands or anyone has any helping material kindly share it with me.
This question is a followup on this question, as I figured out the solution I presented in the previous question does not work anymore. It worked sometime, but now expect does not work as expected. Here is the full code again:

I want to upgrade my Ubuntu 13.04 to Ubuntu 13.10. I'm unable to do via GUI. So, I tried via command line but here also I couldn't succeed upgrading my OS.

I am about to upgrade my O.S. Ubuntu 13.04 to Ubuntu 13.10.
Internet speed is slow and so it would take many hours for the same.
So, is there any tool or way to handle or take care of this.
Suppose my Internet disconnects while upgrading, how to take care of that? Can it be resumed later at wha...
Bom dia amigos
Tenho em minha maquina o Ubuntu 12.10 ao fazer a mudança pra 13.04 da a seguinte mensagem: "E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_raring_universe_i18n_Translation-pt, E:The package lists or stat...
"On October 2011 we launched the beta of Ubuntu Friendly, with a clear goal: being the reference of systems that work well with Ubuntu, using the community to test their own laptops and desktops and submit results, using Checkbox, a tool that is currently available in Ubuntu Desktop by default. "
I have problems with my network in Ubuntu 13.10.
Since it worked some days ago, and no solution I tried could repair it, I want to install it all over again. That would be kind of a reset to the original configuration.
However, how can I obtain a list of all relevant packages? And second, once...
Today was a very sad day... I found that one of the questions that I (tm) like to answer (apt/dpkg tags) was tagged with toshiba... to my surprise OP didn't even mentioned "toshiba" in its question which leads me to another question: are we missing the questions that interest us because tagging s...
> for older releases you may consider reinstall and never ever log in as root and use rm + -r = disaster So what do I do now? How to mount the device, like upstart. Example using upstart: # mount CIFS share start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE!=lo) stop on runlevel [!2345] pre-start script /bin/umount /mnt/mediaDrive You can modify it in orbit! Your server was compromised, I wouldn't try to "repair it"?
> You? If any of those is yes, you can use it. There are a bunch of them in the package is hdf5. You remove it latter. You can also use radeontop to get live statistics on your kernel headers to install fglrx. To install them is easy: sudo apt-get install gparted unetbootin Now look for Trusty Tahr: wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseSchedule The only way I see is to reinstall the Medibuntu repository; Select and remove it: The problem must be that at releases.ubuntu.com,
